Dosen’t seem like there is much to loose at this stage? I have a eur 1k booking for Dec and expecting to hear from IB any day now / pretty tempted to move on in any case…

So it probably means that IB is blocking the possibility of online check-in for these tickets.
I have an Avios MAD-SCL booking and it also does not allow me to check-in more than 24 hours in advance so this might not necessarily be the case (but clearly the risk of unilateral cancellation prior to departure is very much live)
